ohh happy monday

usually.. mondays can be kinda blah-ish. but definitely not this monday. my monday was started off by taking the algebra eoi (not fun).. but the miserable-ness of this test was made alot better due to the guy that was sitting next to me that was absolutely hillarious.. and we were laughing the whole time. then, i found out that i made it into yearbook!! i seriously wanted to scream when i found out.. but yeah. i'm just slightly excited. then my family went to ihop and i had the most amazing french toast ever. so that was my happy monday.
love all. abs.

lovely weekend and a new dress (:

this weekend was soo much fun! to start it off, i went to see 17 again w/ katie (and now i fully admit that yes, zac efron has been added to my list of cute actors, which includes my obsession of shia laboeuf.. which i wouldn't admit prior to friday due to his affiliation w/ high school musical, ew.). it was such a good movie!! so sweet and fun and yeah, pretty much you guys should go and see it... then, we went back to her house and went swimming. gotta love the first swim of the year.. which was also my first swim in april and my first time swimming in my new swimsuit. complete happiness. on saturday, we went shopping for some dresses for our orchestra banquet.. and i found this absolutely adorable dress... here are the pics (:

this is my very very very very dressed down version of the dress..

so, dress shopping was fun.. katie also found this absolutely adorable dress, and i wish i'd taken a pic of her in it.. cause it is soo adorable! anyways, i have been considering getting my hair cut short again, and i'm wondering what you guys think... i saw on Elsie's blog one day a picture of some dresses from an etsy store that were so adorable, so i followed the link and fell in love with the haircut of the girl modeling all of the clothing and purses...

anyways, what do you guys think? i also love this dress.. the etsy store can be found here. absolutely love all of the dresses and stuff. after i got home from katie's, i tried on my new dress for ma mere (who took the first pic of me that are seen above)... then we went and had lunch, which was ohh-so-fun. well, i should probably fold some laundry before mother dearest gets upset.

love all. abs.

eek! second painting!!

today was quite a wonderful day. i got home, and my dad had put in transformers.. so i was immediately sucked in due to shia labeouf.... then did homework, and then i painted! i am completely and totally loving being really creative, it is soo much fun. well, here are the latest pics!

she is painted on a page from an old book that used to be my moms... also loved the weather today.. so nice and sunny, and i got to wear my gladiator sandals... which makes my heart smile. anyways.. so excited for tomorrow.. going to go and see 17 again w/ katie, go swimming (first time in new swimsuit, yay!), and go shopping for banquet dress!

anyways, love all. abs

ok.. so here is my latest drawing (done on the way to and from church tonight)... absolutely love it. today was a good day.. no headache until halfway during church tonight.... which is better... i got some really really really fun cameras from miss amy. (thank you sooo much)... and i will put pics up of them once i take a pic of them.. which i haven't.. this weekend i'm going to be at my amazing and wonderful friend katie's house, to see 17 again, go swimming, and then go shopping for dresses for the orhestra banquet!! yay! so excited. anyways.. here are the pics

so, that's about it for today.. love you all. abs

ohh tuesday.

so, today i had my yearbook interview! yay! i was really nervous, but it was actually not that bad.. i should know by the end of the week if i got into yearbook or not... so i'm really anxious. today was pretty uneventful other than that... kinda have a migrain at the moment.. so, icky.. really want to go and write some... idk. anyways, love all. abs

wow, never knew i could do this.

ok.. so i admit... i have completely doubted myself.. i can actually draw people... like.. relisticly. how insane. i always thought that i couldnt.. but i actually can.. so.. here is a pic

this is just a rough draft... but... yeah.. new found talent. gotta love. well, love all. abs

easter sunday..

ok.. so today was easter... and it was a very good easter... went to church, went to lunch w/ the howes and hayes at napoli's... can you say delicious? then came home and did homework.... ick. after the homework.. i doodled a little... which was fun... then went to church and saw the movie fireproof, which was very very very good... and i cried some.. so, really good movie. ok, so i have made an executive decision to make a list of things that i really want to do...

1. create a wholeee lot more
2. learn to make clothing. yay.
3. learn to knit (hint, hint lisa)
4. live through freshman year..

randomness...

ok... so i'm totally staying up super late tonight... and yeah.. it's kinda fun. just talking to jacob at the momento.. and really wanting to paint.. but i don't have a canvas.. so that complicates things just a little bit... yeah.. this is kinda just a little "hey" .. so that certain someones (amy and lisa) don't get on to me for not blogging.. hehe.
love all. abs
